I don't think they go past 10 any time soon.  They have no reason to.
 
Nebraska would be going to the Rose Bowl is there were no conf champ game.  I think Texas is done with conf champ games for as long as they can put one off.  They nearly got knocked out of a title shot a few years back almost losing to Nebraska in the conf champ.  The one where Su made McCoy throw the ball away with about 1 sec left on the clock.  Total fluke of luck for Texas that McCoy didnt throw the ball 1 sec later and have the clock expire on them before they could kick a FG.
 
Plus, they are getting paid like they have 12 right now, and dividing it among only 10. 
 
FSU and Clemson are now making enough in the ACC so that going to the Big12 would be a money loser for many years.  No one else out there makes any sense as a viable add.
 
There is one man who controls what happens in realignment at this point.  If Delaney wants 2 more schools, anything can happen.  If he is good with 14, nothing will change.
 
If he decides to add, who is really at risk? who knows.  The pac 12 and SEC may both feel pressured to add more schools.  The Pac 12 has only one option, the big 12.  the SEC could add big 12 schools or ACC schools, or maybe stand pat, who knows.  Maybe the ACC and Big 12 are both blown up, anything could happen.
 
But I don't see the big 12 being an expansion driver at this point.  The big 12 and the acc are basically in the same boat, comfortable where they are, but vulnerable if Delaney gets hungry.
